Year 10 Food Technology

Throughout Week 4 and Week 5, the Year 10 students studying Food Technology undertook the practical component of their restaurant showcase assessment for the “Food Service & Catering” unit. The task involved the design of their very own restaurant wherein the menu would reflect the theme chosen by the student. Chosen themes ranged from Italian and Asian cuisines, diner food and even Pokemon themed restaurants! 

The students chose a main dish which reflected their theme to cook alongside their Sous Chef. The practical tested their skills in presentation, creativity, hygiene, teamwork, communication and time management. The students performed exceptionally well under the pressure cooker conditions of an assessment and even had a little bit of fun with the service side of the task. Students played music to create a pleasant atmosphere for their customers, decorated their table settings to reflect their theme and some students even went the extra mile and dressed up for the occasion! 

Congratulations to the Year 10 Food Technology students for completing their assessment task and a big thank you to Mrs Thomson, Mrs Van Der Werf and Miss Mifsud for organising the task and working endlessly with the students to ensure the assessment ran smoothly.
